I'm sitting at level 75, ready to grind some endgame.
- Which demon, would be the best to bind for my Echoing Strike Warlock?

My own guess is Hephasto.

you can see his aura

best is, to clear a little bit the mobs beside him to be 100% sure what aura he got, maybe also make ur merc naked so he doesnt kill him

just put 1 lil hit on him and then bind him

Fire cursed is better imo. Fire procs curse instantly vs cold is slower

I'd prefer the cold, it proc's slower but the speed it does vs the killing speed is close enough that it doesn't matter. Cold also is more defensive, lets you auto slow down lil suicidal nuggets of hate in Durance.
